My How to duvet cover entry. - http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A681329
It was discussed in PR that headers on this entry were a bit OTT, in Goo especially, so I replaced them with subheaders.
The subeditor did a wonderful job on the entry, but he put the headers back in. Can they be changed back again please?

Are you forgetting, you can sort this out directly now!?

I can still be polite and go through the proper channels though.
If it's been through a sub ed, it would be very rude of me to just go in and change the bits I don't like.

But if the subeds finished with it then the Italics will have to step in anyway. If you wan't to talk to the subed direct then use their U-page. Either way it seems stupid for an Italic to post a question in the Feedback forums.

Three things Tango -
1. I wrote it as Mina, so I'm dealing with it as Mina.
2. It will remind me to do it when I'm back in the office.
3. I don't *feel* like an Italic. I just feel like Mina-who-happens-to-be-in-the-Towers, so I don't *think* like an italic. Yet. Which meant my first thought was Editorial Feedback.
and an extra bit...
PS

A post it note in my house is not much good when I'm at work not remembering what I wanted to do.
And it was changed by someone important, so it's a good job I didn't change it myself!

To be honest I was a little stuck on a reponse for point 2, you could always use a journal entry, I've seen people with entries entitled "Note to self".
Who's this important person? And how did you find out if it wasn't by using your new found "contacts" on the inside? No-one's posted here, unless you have made 2 conversations?

Your're right, I could go and post on my italic space to remind me, but honestly, posting there was the first thing that came to mind.
The important person was Anna, I went over and asked her about it.

I think there was a typo there, but I'm not sure what! Should "there" have been "here" or should "was" have been "wasn't"?
I told you you would have to sort it out as an italic rather than a mere mortal! The rest of us can't just walk across the office and ask Anna.
